The entire stay was good. We enjoyed how close it was to the beach. There is a private walk way which was very nice. The two pools were nice when we didn’t want to walk to the beach.

Overall the stay was awesome! The only complaint we had was the gate codes for all the common access areas were newly changed. We were not told about this. We really enjoyed our stay. It was a nice and clean house. The pools around the property were well maintained. Beach walk took us about 10 minutes but we had a 6 and 2 year old.

Disappointing
Except for the two issues of no television service and no heat in the living area, we had an okay time. The rental was clean, the bed mattress was excellent and the location was very good to get to the beach. Because of the strong winds we had, I would suggest that the tree branches be cut back from the building. Also for future renters it would be a great idea to give written instructions to use the tv when it gets fixed. We did not use the dishwasher or the microwave so I don’t know how they work.

Ruined weekend
My wife and I booked a quick little weekend getaway. The house was very nice and was very clean. The issues we had was there is absolutely zero cell signal where we were. To get a text or make a call you had to walk to the road. The wifi was horrible due to it only being a booster and not a router. With kids at home with their grandparents we needed to be able to get in contact. Also when you run both TVs off of network based programs( Netflix, Hulu, youtubetv, etc) and don’t have cable you need a wifi signal. The tv volume downstairs also didn’t work so there was zero sound. We called the after hours help desk as soon as we got there and they said they would send a maintenance man the next morning. There was nothing he could do to fix it but he tried anyway. The help desk said since it was the weekend they would have someone come check it out Monday.(Our departure date) We asked to be moved and were told there were no one bedroom rentals available. We then asked to be refunded and we would just leave because we just couldn’t stay without phone signal to our children and families in case of an emergency. We were offered about 10% of our total cost after dealing with this issue the one day we had been there and were told we were lucky to be offered that. We declined the small offer and packed up and went home. It was a very bad experience and I will never rent from Blue Swell again. Also the bed is super firm, the pillows are garbage, and be ready to wake up at 7am when the sun comes up.

Perfect location but…
This place was in an incredible location. Could not have been happier w/ the beach access and proximity to great food. We were really happy with our trip. That said, the bed was incredibly hard. Not firm-hard. Pillows were terrible. Was not a comfortable sleep for my pregnant wife or myself. The sunshades in the room provide little to know sunshade so hopefully you’re an early riser like us! We would stay here again, if some small changes were made.

This was a lovely property. Only complaint is that the third person in our group who sometimes has trouble sleeping could not sleep on the pull out sofa. And the couch is too short to sleep on. Otherwise, it was lovely.

We were absolutely thrilled with this little cottage. Clean and surprisingly roomy. The one draw back was spotty internet service. Depending on the purpose of your trip, that might be a very good thing. Take a deep breath and enjoy this amazing property.

Great little guest house
We enjoyed our stay in the cute little guest house behind the main house. It was efficient but comfortable. The good: Cute gated neighborhood Updated home Washer/dryer in unit About a 20 min walk from beach access and cute ice cream shop. Nice and cool, even with the AC set at 75. Tv with roku so you can sign in with your own accounts. The not as good/worth noting: Shower had mold and mildew, mostly on the inside under the door on tile. It seemed like someone just didn't carefully clean the shower, but still it felt a little icky. The bar top table was super wobbly, to the point where we felt like we were going to knock the table over just trying to sit and eat. A countertop height table with stools would work better and then you could also use the stools as side tables for the couch when you're on the couch. No dishwasher. This was fine for us but worth noting if it's a deal breaker for others. All in all a good little place to stay

Nice but need golf cart- impossible parking.
The property management company was on top of it and good with communication. My main concern was the lack of willingness from the Owner to allow us a golf cart. We were willing to pay for it but they wouldn't allow it. It's very crowded now on 30A and not conducive to driving and if you have a small child, too tiring to bike everywhere. We could not stay here again for the simple fact that they will not allow golf carts.
